Meet An Adoptable Dog

Date into Rescue: 03/26/2025

Reason for being in rescue: Breeder Release

Special Needs: Clover arrived in rescue pregnant. She's given birth to 4 beautiful babies, her last litter. She's now been spayed and is up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative. 

What kind of home would be best for me: Meet Clover, a little princess looking for her happily ever after! This sweet little mama came to us as a breeder surrender. Now that she’s finished weaning her pups, Clover is ready to leave motherhood behind and find a forever home where she’ll be the center of attention. No more litters, just love, pampering, and the joyful life she deserves.  Clover would do best in a single family home with a secure fenced yard to hang out (with her people and her bestie of course).  

Clover would do well in a home with singles, couples, or families—as long as she gets lots of love and time with her people. If there are children in the household, they should be 10 or older and understand that Clover is not a toy. She loves to play and would happily run around a fenced yard with respectful kids, another small dog, or both!

Without exception, Clover must have a small dog, her size preferrable, who is no more than 4 years old and still full of life and full of fun.  In her perfect world, this will be another terrier for earth dogs have a unique style of play and they easily recognize when another of their kind "gets them."  Clover thrives playing with other small dogs.  Her foster mom will not place her in a home with only older dogs or as an only dog.  She needs a canine buddy to go on adventures with.  Stroller for two anyone:  She also does well with cats as long as they’re dog friendly but a cat is not a substitute for a small dog BFF.

This little explorer is happiest where the action is, her and her BFF buddy dog.  She has never lived in a home. She has only lived first in a back yard surrounded only by her own kind, and then in our doggie day care type setting.  She really likes this sleeping inside at night but during the day, she is in and out and loving life.  Clover wants to be in the middle of all the things going on.  She doesn't enjoy being left alone for long periods so first preference is to those who work from home or are home most of the time.  She is content in her crate.  

What is my personality like: Clover is a total lovebug who adores people. She thrives on attention, enjoys exploring her surroundings, and firmly believes the best place to be is right in your lap. She’s energetic and playful, so an active home where she’ll receive plenty of affection and enrichment would be ideal.

Clover currently isn’t leash trained and prefers to follow her human closely. Leash training will be an important next step for her safety. She also hasn’t learned basic commands like sit, stay, or come, but she’s a smart little girl and with positive reinforcement, treats, and love, she’ll pick things up quickly.

Her compact size and affectionate nature make her a great sidekick for errands, outdoor dining, or trips to the coffee shop. Just don’t forget to treat her to a pup cup! Clover does not yet know the big, wide world that we just described, but we think she wants to learn.  

Clover is looking for someone to open their heart and home to a little dog who’s ready to live the fairy tale life she was always meant for. Are you the one to give Clover her happily ever after... If so, you’ll find that your own life becomes a fairy tale too, filled with love, loyalty, and lots of snuggles.

How do I act when I first meet new people: Clover is a sweetheart who enjoys meeting people and making friends. There's no stranger danger here - just a lot of love to share!

Tips and Tidbits: Clover was born on or around 3/26/2022.

House trained: Dogs can be house trained if they are in the right environment and are allowed to follow a schedule if a physical reason doesn't keep them from being trained.  A dog house trained in my home may not be in yours. We will help you teach your new dog this necessary skill and based on your schedule.

Please note - we do not ship or transport our dogs. If you are interested in adopting a dog, take a look at the distance between the dog's location and your location and make sure you are able to make the trip.

Thank you for your interest in a dog who needs a new home. This description contains all that we currently know about this dog. We have no perfect dogs - but many of our dogs have proven to be perfect for a certain someone. We urge all of our potential adopters not to fall in love with a picture. When screening applications, we look at the entire home and then make suggestions based on what would be a good fit for your home. You are not being screened for a specific dog although we are looking to see what type of dog interests you - poodles or non poodles, age, temperament, personality, etc. Our goal is to match you with the best possible pet for you and your home. We want to create furever families.
